Invitation for our public from Otterbein University. "Are you already worried about climate change? There is a strong connection between climate change and psychology, and conservation psychologists like Dr. Susan Clayton are researching the topic. The George W. and Mildred K. White Science Lecture Series at Otterbein University is excited to present a lecture by conservation psychologist Dr. Susan Clayton at 6 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 30, in Riley Auditorium at the Battelle Fine Arts Center. Reserve your tickets for this free, public lecture via www.eventbrite.com/e/science-lecture-series-psychology-climate-change-with-dr-susan-clayton-ticke...?
The lecture, Psychology and Climate Change, will discuss how psychological research and expertise can help us to understand our reactions to climate change and encourage more positive responses. This talk will review several ways in which psychological research and expertise can help us to understand reactions to climate change and encourage more positive responses. Clayton will discuss how to better understand the ways in which people perceive the risks of climate change, the ways in which climate change threatens psychological well-being and undermines social justice, and how behavioral interventions can be used to encourage adaptive responses.
About the Speaker: Susan Clayton, Ph.D., is the Whitmore-Williams Professor and Chair of Psychology at the College of Wooster in Ohio. Her research examines people’s relationship with the natural environment, how it is socially constructed, and how climate change affects mental health and well-being. She is author or editor of six books, including Identity and the Natural Environment, Conservation Psychology, and Psychology and Climate Change, and is currently the editor of the Cambridge Elements series in Applied Social Psychology. A fellow of the American Psychological Association and the International Association of Applied Psychology, she was a lead author on the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change."
